Wow, I can't believe how long it took me to find this. It might be a new record. I fired up google and did a search for "Virtua On Operation Moongate" and it came up with this  link  (http://free-game-downloads.mosw.com/abandonware/pc/arcade_action/games_v/virtual_on_cybertroopers_virtual_on_operation_moongate_.html). It looks like VOOM is now Abondonware. This game is also referred to as Virtual On Cybertroopers (same game).

If the above link doesn't work. Here is another one [urlhttp://www.the-underdogs.org/game.php?id=3259[/url].

Enjoy!

So you are saying you want someone to find it download it, play it and then tell you where to go get it.

That is lazy. I might not have started off sounding like a smart ass if you had put what you had tried and what does or doesn't work. If not you are likely to get no help or more of the same. Not trying to be an ass...but help us help you.

No, I'm not saying that I want someone to find it, download it, play test it, and tell me where to get it.

Jim,

 Its unlikely you will find it for purchase other than the likes of ebay or discount bins in retail stores. The reason I say that is that it is classified as abandonware which means that the software distributor no longer is producing, supporting, or selling it and has deemed it public domain.

I have gotten this game to run on AMD machines, you do need a special patch. I have it on a CD around here somewhere, I'll dig it up sometime today and send it to you.

Not that it would be really appropriate to post here.. if for say... you setup a bit torrent or upload to a newsgroup.  That probably wouldn't be appropriate. 

I'm not sure if it would be appropriate if you emailed information or torrents to drakewoodring@cinci.rr.com if that happened.  Appropriate maybe.. Appriciated yes :)

If I ever get my hands on something that works for this program, I would surely pass it on.

Well ladies, I sat down with it, ripped an ISO and tried to get that patch to work...no go. So I decide to flex my cracking skills. I made my own crack and it works like a charm :P Right now I only have the MMX part done, still need to find the CD check. If anyone has any hosting space I would be happy to put all this stuff online for general consumption.

That sounds great!  How big is the iso?  I don't really have any space, but maybe we could figure something out.

The ISO is 100 meg, just the patched EXE is a little over 6 meg. Im gonna try to get the CD crack into at some point tonight, I think I know where to look.

Argggg! Looks like my patch worked fine, theres a issue with the game and Windows XP. There is someone else working on a fix for it, because its way over my head as to waht the issue is.
